Hyundai Sonata Design

- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- Hyundai introduced its all-new seventh-generation 2015 Sonata at the New York International Auto Show. Following the incredible success of the outgoing Sonata, the all-new generation offers a more refined look through a new Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 design language, stiffer body structure, better ride quality, reduced noise, vibration and harshness and advanced safety and convenience features. Sonata truly democratizes the premium design and convenient technology of the Genesis sedan for the mid-size class.
Hyundai continues its all four-cylinder engine lineup for the 2015 Sonata. A revised 2.4-liter Theta II GDI four-cylinder engine powers SE, Limited and Sport models. The 2.4-liter four-cylinder produces 185 horsepower and 178 lb. ft. of torque. Hyundai's powertrain engineers slightly reduced peak power for the 2015 Sonata to shift the powerband downward for better responsiveness in lower-RPM situations where customers spend the majority of their time. The new Electronic Intake Continuously Variable Valve Timing (E-CVVT) improves performance in low temperatures and reduces emissions.
A revised 2.0-liter Theta II turbocharged GDI, also featuring E-CVVT, powers Sport 2.0T models. The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine is also optimized for lower-RPM drivability and it produces 245 horsepower and 260 lb. ft. of torque. The turbocharger features a smaller turbine and compressor wheel, which provide better responsiveness and more torque in the low and mid RPM range. Both Theta engines are paired with a six-speed SHIFTRONIC automatic transmission.

I'm loving that quad exhaust system! I'll admit I underestimated Hyundai for still being poorly made cars, but they've really changed as a company, the new Sonata is gorgeous in my opinion it looks better than a 5 series BMW, much less a Camry
beautiful! I think the designer did a lot of improvement in exterior design. I like it + the exhaust system is gorgeous! ;)
Its very clear Hyundai is positioning itself to take over as the worlds largest carmaker as there currently 4th in the world.
Hey its better than your ranl
Saeed Akbar?????????
tingokuman i know what this person mean, that person mean hyundai is better than your japanese cars.
It's incredibly hard to match the deal you get with Hyundai (or Kia). 10 year/100,000 mile warranty, on top of a very well built and affordable car that also looks great and drives well.
....and I think Hyundai has hit a home run with this car
I saw this car at New York Auto Show. Very impressed. the interior is solid. yes, it’s conservative but it’s a good direction for Hyundai.
Very nice car...took it out for a test drive the other day....the limited model is suppper nice in person
Coming from a die hard Honda fan, I want this car...
damn this one is more attracting the quad exhaust lots of love
FINALLY they have put air conditioned front seats in this car. And the lane departure warning is also a nice feature.
Hyundai is one of very few car companies that is doing things right
A M A Z I N G
i'm not a hyundai fans. but why hyundai became more and more stylish nowadays, i love it.
the center console has more in common with 2005 than 2015. otherwise the trim looks appropriate for a mid price family sedan
هيونداي كان عندي إحساس أنها ستبدع في سياراتها 2015
Korean companies have never been real innovators, just fast followers. The Sonata, with all of the styling features so brazenly taken from other brands, holds true to this virtue.
I got this car last week. Let me give you guys some feedbacks.
Overall the car drives quite well for a 4-cylinder turbo. Noise level of engine and drive is somewhat in the mid range. My previous car was a 2012 Genesis and this 2015 Sonata is not better but doable.
Cons:
The car doors were not aligning correctly. Doors were a bit off from the quarter panels and rear passengers door. I was not able to open driver's side passenger the door. I have to pull the handle twice in order to open the door. Dealership had to take my car in for a day to fix these issues. I got the car on Friday and return to dealership for repairs on Monday, go figure. Hyundai Alabama must be rushing to get this car out of factory because their QC is way below par. I was told the car was also inspected when it arrives at dealership before it can be sold to me. The QC level at the dealership must be the same as factory, below average. How Hyundai is able to miss all doors alignment is beyond my comprehension. I really hope the doors are the only problems and nothing on the brakes or steering as they have a recall earlier when they roll out the 2015 Sonata 2.4s and SEs. My advice to all my fellow buyers: Beware and please check all the doors alignment, make sure they are flushed with quarter panels and rear passenger doors. Oh BTW, even after they fix my doors, one of the doors is still not aligned correctly. I will need to take the car in again. OMG. What is waste of my time.
Bluetooth Audio Streaming: All 2015 Sonata has this problem and their engineers are working on a fix. If you try to stream your music from your phone to the car's Bluetooth system, get ready for a break/pause every 15 seconds. I was told Hyundai knew about this problem but they will still sell the car anyway. Currently I'm waiting for a software patch which will fix this but who knows when. I suggest all buyers to stay the away from this car until maybe a year later till they fix all defects. If you have a iphone 5 or better, wait for Apple Carplay to be installed before you get the car. I kind of regretted getting this car so early in the game as Carplay cannot be retro to the current 2015 Sonata models. Plus I'm not sure what other problem I may encounter. Better wait then be sorry like me.
Window Lock: Yesterday I found a new problem. Window lock function is not working. There is a window lock button on the driver's side left armrest. Supposedly when this function is on, other passengers in the car is not able to open their windows. Mine doesn't work. This function is broken for my car. Sad story, Hyundai miss it during their under par QC.
Pro:???
With so many current problems, my pros are clouded with the cons so there is nothing good to say about the car now. Until they fix all my car's existing problems, I may update this review with some goods. Thanks for reading and hope you all buy other cars for now.
I love this music & the car looks great
With some basic packages like back up camera, touch screen auido, etc, the 2015 sonata easily costs you 26K+. All these features are standard on a 2014 accord base model!
Beautiful car!
Looks like they are copying their brother, KIA's style. Totally looks like a KIA Optima.. Not a bad thing though, as I think the Kia Optima is one of the best looking family sedans available!
Hyundai owns the majority of Kia , Kia is basically the testing grounds for new vehicles, Kia is a great value but Hyundai is a step above as far as quality goes.
TheBlakem Step above as far as quality goes. How so? They are basically the same cars, only with different badges.
bliglum After the take over, Hyundai replaced some of Kia's suppliers. After a while, Hyundai replaced Kia's engines, which caused some commotion from within. Then Kia went after better designs. Now, Hyundai co-hired Kia's chief designer as their chief as well. So it appears they are basically the same cars, however, differences remain. Their history is different. Previously, Kia had a focus on industrial and business vehicles. Now it is focused on consumer cars. Hyundai had a focus on consumer cars, and continue on this path. Since Kia changed its focus market, they are more experimental. The names K5, K7 was an attempt to make their cars easier to remember by name. Hyundai, past and present, kept their car names the same. Kia's K series have a focus on a more rigid but sportier ride. Hyundai remains a comfort focused ride. Kia's K-series started with 2 cars. Now they have 4, and more can be on the way. Hyundai creates new brands for new market segments. And Hyundai likes to create custom vehicles to different continents. Kia's vehicles are more uniform as always. Hyundai designs are created in several continents. Kia's designs are based on the chief designer. This can go on and on.

...nice song !
I would take a 2014 Malibu over this any day. That being said, it does look better than the Fusion, Accord, 6, Altima, Passat, and Camry.
nice looking car. looks like Hyundai is all grown up and wants to take over Toyota. They have a winner here. btw who's the band on the sound track here, I love it....
Very good looking car, but the interior still looks cheap, if the center console has some wood trim on it should be looks better. Anyway, the previous generation Sonata 2.0T has 270+ HP but why the newest version has only 245 HP? Not really happy about that, but the exterior looks really good, love it. Just hope Hyundai can put more attention on the interior design, comfort, quiet are important but still the luxury or high quality looking should also available as well.
Hyundai says.270hp~245hp is for more safe and comport and also the more mpg
The Sonata has be OPTIMIZED. It looks like an Optima and the side looks like a Fusion.
Решили вернуть флагман хендай. Одобряю.
I don't like it, the 2013 Sonata is much nicer looking.
Who cares what you think
I agree! The sixth generation Sonatas have a much sexier, more slick design. The 2015 models are a little too boxy looking. There is a reason why though, Hyndai wanted to redesign the models to a more conservative look because the competition is so strong! I've got my 2011 Sonata and I love it! I'm definitely keeping it for a while so I could care less about the newer designed Sonatas!
Yea the old one is ugly and unsafe marginal rating in front overlap
ghd bfb Front overlap? Boy, you turds are really stretching it.
ghd bfb
Settle down... It's not "shit" and its not unsafe. Why are you getting so rattled?
The front looks very similar to the new Subaru WRX.
WTF why isn't Audi suing this company by now !
How does this look like an Audi?
did u take a look at the interior its a complete replica
oh ok I thought you were referring to the exterior. I guess the interior could look a liitle the same but Audi doesn't use touch screen navigation systems so thats a big difference
The chief designer of Audi went over to KIA to help design their cars. Since Hyundai owns KIA, there is probably a design influence in the interior and exterior.
All car makers borrow ideas from each other. It's just like clothing..no idea stays original for long. Personally I'm glad you don't have to spend over $50k for a car to get good looks and features. =)
Is it just me... or doesn't this look like a Huge step backwards from the current Sonata? You would think Hyundai would continue with the curved & futuristic look considering every other manufacturer started copying them after they released the last gen Sonata... This one doesn't look bad but the last model looks way better imo.
The new trend in styling across the auto industry now is about straighter lines, sharper angles, and sharp creases.
BEAUTIFUL
Am I the only one who thinks this redesign has came a bit too quick? Not that it's a bad thing, I've just never seen such a mainstream car entering its next generation in 4 years
so much sexier than the 2015 genesis
sonata reborn
Looks like Hyundai May be licensing a version of FIAT's 2.4 tigershark motor. Specs too similar to Multiair design. Fiat did refine the terrible world alliance 2.4 motor that was loud and buzzy. I think in Hyundai's case, Hyundai added a few more tech features a turbo version to fit their use.
can anyone share Mercedes GL500 2015 model pictures? or RUclips clip!
Too bad Hyundai joined Subaru with their Legacy by dropping the manual transmission. Hyundai was among one of the first four-cylinder direct injected engines to offer manual, until Honda came along and made their direct injected 2.4 Liter engine with i-VTEC for 2013 and up. But people who buy new family sedans don't even want or can't drive it with a manual transmission, because it's uncomfortable for the driver and passengers to feel the shifts.
Is this a facelift or a complete redesign?
يازينها يارب ترزقني مثلها
What did Hyundai do here - take a look at the current model Sonata and say, how can we make this worse in every possible way?
You're stupid, that dashboard is much improved and they cleaned up the design and quality of the materials. The question should be how they improved it in every way.
Looks to me like the ford fusion and the current sonata had a baby. I'm with you on this one, I prefer the 2014 model much better then the 2015. I really don't like the front end much at all. I don't mind the exhaust tips. That's about it however.
exterior is much nicer and less feminine but interior (dash and buttons) although tried to re-designed but has gone back a few years in time.. look at 2014 the inside is nicer.
this stupid idiot is on crack
Hyundai suspensions still have a ways to go before caching up with the other majors. Kia has the look over the Sonata IMHO.
It doesn't look bad, but it's too conservative.
They should have done something more bold like they did to the 6th gen Sonata.
The second song sounds like a Barry White production. Yea. Hehe
I wish if they just make bigger back lights
Gorgeous car!
Hyndai respect customers.
❤❤how much price
beautiful love it!
Subaru Legacy
The front end is a huge step up from the previous gen and I like the new conservative dash, didn't like the previous gens swoopy design.
I like, how much?
sem palavras carro de louco
Its trunk lid gets smaller and the cabin gets larger. I think in the future, cars won't have a trunk lids but a liftgates
The front looks much better but they should've kept the rear from 2013
I would take this over any other cars on its category
looks good
It's a decent car. Why so much hate? oo
اكيد لاجت السعوديه راح يرتفع سعرها وتوصل سعر الاستاندر حدود ٩٥ والله اعلم
The tail lights look exactly like a Kia's, especially the Kia Sorento's
Just want to say nice!!!
I want it
People have been giving me a hard time when I say it reminds me of a Ford in rear end part of car excluding the dual exhausts. Does it not look similar? Just wondering.
wow! design is much better than camry and accord
I agrwee
is it me or does this car look almost the same as the new subaru legacy?
I like to the old one better
Nice

although the quad exhaust is nice it's a little too pretentious for a vehicle that only has a Turbo 4. A V6 might be slightly more appropriate
Hyundai and Kia are the best….at making frankenstein cars.
Hyundai did a great job on the exterior of the redesigned 2015 Sonata, I can see the aim was to make it a bit more mature while maintaining a WOW appeal, and I believed they succeeded with this exterior design. Unfortunately for the interior, they went geriatric! For a company that came so far - Why would Hyundai allow such an old, bland interior in their redesign? I sat in this car twice, once at the NYC auto show and again for the test drive. The dated dash board threw me back to my parent’s old station wagon both times and I simply could not move forward with a test drive. Hyundai - Remember this - Most drivers will spend most of their time inside the car. Therefore it’s equally important to have an interior design that’s both comfortable and appealing.

Bravo Hyundai
I support Hyundai! :)
Love the new stile but hate the rims does not match the style of the car
nice
Hyundai genesis little brother
it looks a lot like the new Chrysler 200 in its profile
Looks like an upgrade version of KIA Optima :s
Hyundai is aiming this car to compete with the C-class while Kia is aim at Audi.
Narrationless?
I looking for one from 2015 in but I am in China 🇨🇳
COOL:-) CAR EVER :-) MAN awesome:-)
I'm also not impressed. 2013 2.0T owner, and Love it. 2015 seems very Conservative and boxy. Looks like something my Grandpa would drive.
Wow
the steering wheel is the style of Merceders Benz
I can actually see that too.
@Moby Dick Lmao I know it sounds crazy but I'm just talking about looks. I truly believe that if this car had like European badge on it it would sell like crazy
Too bad the useful foglamps have been replaced by useless LED lights which look corny and do nothing and power is down across the board with the base engine down to 185 HP and the turbo down to only 245 from 274. Also the only way to get a turbo is the top line $29385 SE turbo model. All the other models have the 185 HP engine. For 2014 you could get a 25K SE turbo or 29K turbo Limited with the 274 HP engine.
Peter Schreyer used to work for Audi. Now he work for Hyundai/Kia. Have you notice their vehicles are better looking than your Toyota/Lexus, Honda/Acura. Japanese car makers are clueless in terms of styling. I still give the edge in quality to the Japanese but not for long.
ي لبى السوسو
they did a good job on the body, the flash edges make it look aggressive, but the hud looks lame and boring. they should of kept the design HUD of 2011 and + or something improved from that design especially the speedometer gauges
2015 sonata 2.4 0-60 just under 9 seconds and 2.0T just above 8 seconds....not the worst in this segment but way behind Camry or Accord.
looks like a ford fusion mixed with kia cadenza
Bigger CLA front looking
A very good performance of high-end modern design but also good
Treat customers gateo shit attitude ...: (
gotta say hyundai had a significant improvement both on exterior and interior, i somehow love how the new hyundai cars look like....and even think to buy one...but then again when i see the brand...its. hyundai ...and used to be suck and cheap car.....thats the only thing that stopped me to buy a hyundai...not trying to be a dick but i had to say that hyundai cheap brand image stuck in me quite bad lol....anyway i love how they style their new car...looks luxury yet sporty...its just the brand dude......makes me pfftt...
As I have sonata 2012 I think it is not much nice or butty it is only about technology ,the best design is 2013 because it is must faster and youth and fashion for new people .
I like the sonata 2012&2013.
this car is a regular Sonata on steroids
rear view looks like kia optima.
it looks good but a little bit like the sonata
???... it is a Sonata... lol
